Time was when all this would have been caught by the "Arabs," who made a good thiog of it, as the "drift" was hardly ever claimed, but when a tolerably-sized raft wps accumulated, would run it to Pittsburgh, and sell it. But now it is always claimed by the owners, and the amount allowed by law for securing and tying it up is not enough to pay for the toil aud trouble experienced.
